Company culture

BurdaMedia Extra was founded in 1991. Over the course of more than twenty years of operation, we have gradually become one of the most prestigious publishing houses and rank among the most important players on the Czech media market. We are also part of the international Hubert Burda Media Group, which operates in 20 countries and employs over 10,000 people.

Close cooperation with foreign colleagues gives us a broader perspective, the opportunity to be constantly inspired by good examples and to share our own experience and successes. Workshops and seminars are organised throughout the Group. "Social networking" is a priority for us!

We are creative people, full of ideas, energy and passion for what we do. We are constantly working on ourselves. Our motto is: "We don't want to be ordinary or mediocre, we want to be the best!" This is also why our colleague must be proactive and always open to new ideas and thoughts. We would like to welcome a personality with a passion for classic and new media, who can accept responsibility and has the will to participate in continuous improvement. We also help you to develop your talents to the full, so we give you the chance to advance your career not only within the company but across the Group.

Selection procedure

The process of each selection procedure may vary depending on the type of job, i.e. the specific job, responsibilities, professional qualifications, etc.

Pre-selection

After collecting CVs, we assess candidates' profiles according to the requirements of the positions to be filled. Candidates who best match our requirements are first contacted by the HR department via a short telephone interview. The pre-selection process may include the preparation of a case study, which is then presented by the candidate in a personal interview.

Personal interviews

Successful candidates are invited to personal interviews. Depending on the type of position to be filled, this part of the selection process is usually two rounds. During the personal interview, you will always meet with the head of the department and an HR representative. The personal interview may also include the completion of an independent assignment, testing of hard/soft skills or language skills. In the case of managerial positions, candidates will meet with CEO Petra Fonda at the end of the selection process.

Closure of the selection process

The successful candidate is notified by telephone of the job offer. Upon acceptance, the successful candidate receives a letter of intent, or written job offer, which summarises all the terms and conditions that were negotiated as part of the selection process. After mutual acceptance of the letter of intent, a contract and accompanying documentation is then prepared. Candidates who are not selected are informed of the outcome of the selection procedure by telephone or e-mail within one week of the conclusion of the selection procedure. After approval has been granted, the candidate's profile can be included in an internal database of potential candidates who are contacted as a matter of priority if a suitable position is found within BurdaMedia Extra.

Currently filled positions can always be found in the Job openings. In case you are not interested in any of the positions advertised and would still like to work for our company, you can send us your CV for the database together with a motivation letter and information about the type of work you would be interested in to nabor@burda.cz.
